I try to make a point of blogging about what's important to me good or bad; some bloggers would leave this stuff out, and considering some of the comments I usually get, I can kind of see why.<br /><br />I genuinely can't diet. I don't have the emotional capacity to do so - my mother does the whole mathematical thing of time goals and calorie counts (up to the point of having a hand-drawn graph on the wall; she is a retired maths teacher, so you can kind of see where she gets that). I'm not really able to do that: my gastrointestinal condition causes me incredible pain and a loss of both fluid and solids on a fairly regular basis; my depression also causes me to comfort-eat.<br /><br />I haven't mentioned this because it's no longer a thing, but when I was in my late teenage years, I started to develop bulimia, which thankfully didn't have any lasting effects, but I only stopped making myself throw up because it "wasn't working". I don't binge-eat, nor do I gorge on unhealthy stuff; I'm also a devout vegetarian, so I don't eat fatty red meat, <i>etc.</i>, but my diet isn't brilliant. It's a normal diet, but I'm not burning any of it off, which is where the problem lies.<br /><br />So yes, I need to exercise. It's the only thing left (which wouldn't cost an obscene amount of money and wouldn't be anything more than a temporary fix, like a gastric bypass, liposuction or LighterLife). I last went on Tuesday for a swim, steam room session, and sauna (followed by a shower in which I used shower gel marketed for girls because <i>fuck gendered marketing</i>); I haven't been since then because of my continuous lack of sleep rendering me almost incapable of moving in the mornings, and work in the afternoons.<br /><br />I also can't go to the gym without my tracksuit bottoms, and I've no idea <i>where</i> those are.<br /><br />But thank you for relating, and for your good vibes.<br /><br />Ironically, less than two hours after writing this post, my girlfriend arrived and saw me in my new glasses. She has since spent every waking second assuring me that I look incredibly sexually attractive in glasses, and although she probably has to say that, even I have to admit that I look at least clever in them, and that helps, to some degree.<br /><br />Maybe I should just send my head and chest to Eroticon and leave the rest at home...Innocent Loverboyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16564876728079783376noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-486836004893344372.post-58840368136801587592018-02-10T05:47:44.369+00:002018-02-10T05:47:44.369+00:00"I'm sweating like a very sweaty person w..."I'm sweating like a very sweaty person who sweats, and nothing else happens." - I *so* relate!<br /><br />I enjoy specific athletic <i>activities</i>, but I do NOT like to exercise.<br /><br />And the 'something else canceling out my efforts' thing? Yes. Sigh.<br /><br />This may or may not be helpful, but as a fellow low-metabolite and unenthusiastic exerciser: I did a bunch of research on calories at the beginning of 2017, which helped me set achievable dietary goals. I set time and calorie caps for myself (no calories after 7pm, only _____ number of calories allowed per day), based on my goal weight, without a bunch of detailed limitations or restrictions. It worked; I dropped weight.<br /><br />(To be clear, I am NOT giving advice - is there anything more obnoxious than unsolicited advice? - I'm just sharing. I know full well how frustrating it can be!)<br /><br />Sending you good vibes for all things body-positive.<br /><br />xoMrs Feverhttp://mrsfever.comnoreply@blogger.com
